Continuity failure, or did I miss a book?

After seeing that Blue team is back in Halo 5 it raised questions for me. I read all the novels that I know of. I thought Kelly (or Linda, I forgot which was the sniper) went MIA(as "Spartans never die") in the book The First Strike when the covenant space station exploded. And I thought Fred was trapped in some kind of slip-space containment field with Dr. Halsey and a few from the Spartan III program as per the end of Ghosts of Onyx. Though as in Halo 4, Halsey clearly got out, and the rest could have as well, I just don't know how or when they got out.

It seems you've missed quite a bit. Glasslands by Karen Traviss acts sort of as a sequel to that story and gives back story on Jul Mdama and why he hates humans and serves the Didact. It explains how Infinity is founded and how the Spartan IIs, IIIs, and Halsey and Mendez make it out of the Dyson Sphere.

Too add to this. :)
 
Halo escalation the next 72 hours is a three part comic series that takes place after Glasslands. It details what happened to Mc and Blue team 72 hours after Halo 4.
 
Also, when it comes out, read this book

 

 The novel, Halo: Last Light

As of now, unreleased. But follows the actions of Blue Team and team Katana following Glasslands and will likely give some more insight into what they have been up to since John's disappearance" < From Baconshelf

 

To understand what happened to Blue team since Ghosts of onyx read these three things.

 

Glasslands

Halo last light

Halo escalation 72 hours ( its a three part comic )

Sam was the one who had died in an explosion of sorts. He was the First Spartan to die in Combat.


He was also an original member of Blue team, along with Kelly and John. Linda was presumed dead at one point and put into cryo stasis to preserve any chance at saving her, which Dr. Halsey did do with Flash cloned organs.
